Here at the ranch I have found numerous indian artifacts, including an arrowhead I wizzed on. Was cruising the ranch and stopped to take a leak, look down and there it was. Campfire ring and whisky bottles from oil field workers from the 20.s. An old red wagon and an old truck body. This year I found where a lion had killed a couple of spikes.

I spent a few hours on that one, I found it a few months ago.

I didn't find it, but one of the guys I was on the lease with found a piece of the space shuttle. It was about as big as a truck fender. Pretty creepy thing to hold in your hand.

Too bad THAT wasn't on the game camera!!!

We weren't hunting but my uncle and I came across an old Kiowa camp ground up near Booker Texas in Lipscomb County. We found several spear tips, and the metal of an old winchester lever action. You could still see the circles in the ground from where the teepees had sat.

Wasnt hunting but we had an Indian grave show up in our road one day after a heavy rain. Turns out it was a Caddo Indian and he had a musket wound in his pelvis bone. It was pretty cool to see and Indian grave he was buried with arrowheads a hatchet and some other stuff. The smithsonian ppl came and dug him.

WOW. I read all 24 pages of this. Had to recharge my laptop battery once. I've found a few whole arrow heads on the side of a hill just outside of Glenrose of the Puluxy river that was litterly littered with thousands of little broken arrow heads, 2 old forged branding irons, several old cars and some old, old beer bottles from the early 1900's. I amazed at the guns found leaning against trees and the dead bodies.

There was some guy on here that found a human skull...I thought there were pictures in this post but I scanned through it really fast and didn't see it...creepy fo sho...

I was thinking about asking the guy on this thread who found all of the weed to take me hunting with him, but nevermind that I wanna go with you!

I once was crossing a fence and looked down to see a mens ring laying on the ground. I guess someone had lost it crossing the same place. It was not woth much.

I found an old rimfire shell casing with an "H" on the end that had been fired/misfired twice as it had 2 sets of crimps. I showed to it to someone and they told me it was from the 1870's. I found it about 200 yds from an old stage coach route and a spring.

Arrowheads, arrowheads, and arrowheads...amazing. Must have been the indians version of shot gun shells or 22 shells lost in the grass. Makes you wonder how they could spend so much time making them but just leave them around or we just happen to find a bunch of them. Cool, knowing some guy made them 100 + years ago or more.

Old beer, soda bottles and cans with the old aluminum pull tops....kids about 20 years or younger don't know what that is.

I don't know how unusual this is, but I could have gone my whole life and would have been happy to not see this.

I was in a deer stand on a pine plantation, which was about 25' off the ground.

It was early morning, 0-dark-thirty, and in the tree next to me, as the light was starting to come in, I could see how one of the limbs had grown rather odd. As time progressed and it got to be enough light that I could now see really well, I looked back over to the odd grown tree limb. And what I got to see was not a deformed tree, but a rather large snake coiled up and wrapped on the limb.

Once it warmed up, I got to see this snake cork screw itself down the tree, which tells me, it got up the same way. This thing was long, and to this day, I haven't a clue what kind of snake it was.

All I know is when I have to climb into a fixed stand, I always take extra caution before I climb on in.

Crap, all I ever find is arrow heads! Seriously, old lease in Mason Co had an Indian camp on it back in the 1850's or so. The ranchers father had the land since the 1860's, when he came there from Ga, during the Civil War. Also had a grave of an sheep herder that died around the same time. Most of the arrow heads were broken/chipped, but my BinL found a perfect one. Other than that, some old horse shoes, shed horns.
Also same lease, a 1920' Menard, Tx Coke bottle and I think a DP bottle from when the pipeline was put in.

I have found arrowheads from Texas and Colorado. Along with those I have picked up a few pieces of pottery and grinding stones and a pipe that looks like it was made out of shell.
I found the remains of an old still. Went back later with metal detector and found an old pocket knife about 8" deep in the dirt.
Wasn't hunting but doing a job and found some dinosaur tracks that we uncoverd with a backhoe. One of them is now in the Smithsonian Institute. I came across a piece of petrified wood that I kicked and couldn't loosen. I came back with a shovel and dug for many hours and unearthed a huge petrified tree trunk full of what I think is amber.

It seems as there are alot of "found" guns! Did people 100-150 years ago leave that many guns lying around or are they "A friend found"?

Not saying it isn't so, just seems like alot. I could see someone getting killed out in the woods back in the 1800's and a gun staying where they dropped it, but I would think the bad guys would have picked them up.... like in the Westerns, but most are layed up on a tree or fence.

In Shackelford County arrowheads, the sideplate off an 1873 winchester rifle, tin cup and a perfect 1854 quarter dollar.
In Colorado a camo Ruger rifle leaning under a giant spruce tree, box of 300 win ammo, cheap pair of Nikon Binos. I used to go up every year in late may to help a buddy clear the trails for summer trail rides and we found this stuff.

I wanna find a gun, hopefully not one that has been used as a murder weapon...

amen to that

A buddy of mine found a game warden badge from the Texas Wildlife and Oyster Commission before it became later known as Texas Parks and Wildlife.

i would have joined lol

Ok so here's a weird one that happened Saturday. After hunting for 6 hours and not seeing a thing, Redman and I walked back to the truck only to find out the battery was dead. So as he stands on the toolbox trying to get reception 6 birds fly over. Not just any birds. Long legged, big birds. About the size of the blue herrings that fish in ponds. Weird thing was that the underside of these birds was hot pink and white!!! So automatically I assume they're flamingos. I find out, after having a sheriff's deputy jump us off, that I'm not the only cat seeing these flamingos around Sommerville. So if anyone of y'all go hunt there watch out, it'll catch you off guard.
